Senator JD Vance compares Kamala Harris to Michael Jordan
In a recent interview on “The Joe Rogan Experience,” Ohio Senator JD Vance, the Republican vice presidential nominee, got attention by comparing Vice President Kamala Harris to NBA star Michael Jordan. Vance criticized Harris’s speaking style, stating that she speaks a lot but doesn’t convey much real meaning.
He said, “I give a lot of speeches, so there’s an actual skill to this. I think she is the Michael Jordan of using as many words as possible to say as little as possible. There’s actually a certain gift that she has.”
These comments come at an important time in the 2024 presidential race. As the election gets closer, Vance’s comparison makes the political situation even more interesting.
